Errr, now that Ive got your attention.
Obviously not the music, I love it all(well most of it, I defy anyone to claim they like every sound they've heard) from 60's R&B through to 2000's err...R&B
No, it's the term I take issue with.
I much prefer the term Rare Soul, after all noboby ever said "I'm gonna sit down and write/produce/perform a Nothern Soul record(well there are exceptions to everything )"
Whenever I'm asked what music I like I just say Soul and leave it, cos you just can't explain, and Northern Soul still carries the burden ,to the unknowing masses, of Footsee,Wigan's Ovation etc etc.
